Ulster Folk Museum

On a rather damp and dreary day in January 2018, I took myself and a friend off to the Ulster Folk Museum, Cultra, near Holywood. The living history museum tells the story of life in early 20th Century Ireland through a unique collection of every day buildings which have been painstakingly numbered, dismantled, and reconstructed on this rural site outside Belfast. It is a fascinating visit and certainly one to bring the camera and a picnic. I hope you enjoy the results of my trip.
